I'm surprised to see so many cheapskates not just paying the £8 to get the whole game. £8, seriously.


You win more Toads and your Kingdom 'expands' so then gaining a certain amount of different coloured Toads will unlock playable characters through purchasing one of their houses. You can also unlock item blocks which give you coins or Rally tickets every couple of hours and houses that open up mini games.

...

You know when you tap on the castle, it shows a picture of a fully built village? I'm trying to match that picture. I've got a feeling that something will happen.

(Please don't say if you know I'm right or wrong - I just want to find out myself!)

I just downloaded this to pass the time while I take long bus journeys and find it requires internet only connection? What. Why? As I'm abroad, I don't have Internet. I've had a brief go and it seems great-Nintendo must be the masters of nearly getting things perfect and then doing something that makes no sense at the final hurdle.

I can understand that on Android but does anyone even Jailbreak iPhones anymore? I haven't since it bricked my iPhone 5 over 2 years ago and never felt the need to since. It does need an update that maybe allows you to play through the Worlds without need of an internet connection, after the only online side of completing worlds is it showing which friend has gotten the highest score per level.

I don't know many people that root / rom android anymore, most features people wanted are there and people as far as I know don't bother,

Ooh, this got exciting didn't it! With all due respect to Fade, you absolutely cannot judge Mario Run until you have paid and downloaded the whole thing. Once there you'll find a very clever little game indeed, just about worthy of the asking price. (I would have preferred £6-99 but hey, this is the UK so we are literally here for the purpose of being ripped off...) It's a great game, well worth paying for, but, like Ruddlerless said, it just lacks something in the 'feels' department. To be really quite hilarious, 'can't quite put my finger on it'.....

I do think that some of the blame here has to go to Nintendo. They let you play three, rather lacklustre, levels and then expect you to part with cash. They hardly leave you desperate to see more! I only stumped up because I was given an i-tunes card for Christmas. Very bad introduction to an otherwise good game. Surprisingly poor thinking really, because personally, I sure as hell would have been putting a ton of 'just one more go' stuff into those first few three levels...

Edit. I read that only 3% of those that have downloaded the free levels have stumped up for the whole game. The blame for that can only be placed at Nintendo's door. They would have been better, if a lot more cynical/business wise, putting everything they had into the first three levels and then serving up a raft of shit-sandwiches as the rest of the game once you'd paid up. But then, Nintendo, naive, plain stupid, you fill in the rest.

I can only imagine that the reason they designed it that way was because that's how they usually design full Mario games - the first few worlds are always quite easy going, steadily building to the later ones.

As you say though, changing this approach may have been a better idea for a game that has free levels then wants you to shell out. Suppose they're new to this model.

Played the first 3 levels and bought the rest. Seems quite fun.

I've put about 2 hours into it so far, getting all three sets of coins on each of the first 3 worlds.

Seems pretty good value to me.

When compared to the Rayman runners, it just shows how awful the pricing is.
